THE HERO O F LEYTE GULF

I'M ONE of the luckiest guys to be alive," Lt. (jg) Clark W. Miller, Hanover '42, hero of the Leyte Gulf battle of the Philippines last October, said with a grin, when sked about the sinking of the Ommaney Bay, escort aircraft carrier.

The tall, broad-shouldered, likeable Navy pilot, who has the distinction of being the first pilot to land on Peleliu Island after its capture, was aboard the Omman ey Bay when it was hit by bombs from a Japanese plane and sunk by torpedoes from an American ship in the Pacific area.

Lt. Miller is lucky, since he escaped death twice on the Ommaney Bay. It was his daring and quick action during the Leyte Gulf battle that saved his own and thousands of American lives and part of the United States seventh Fleet from annihilation by a Jap battleship. He pitched a last torpedo from his Plane into the lead ship of the Japanese fleet that was headed toward the Ommaney Bay and other ships of the Seventh Fleet and thus routed the enemy fleet.

The story of Lt. Miller's heroic action was told in an article, "Plug that Last Rat Hole," which appeared in the January 27, 1945 issue of the Saturday Post The copyrighted article, which was written by Comdr. C. E. Dickinson, is here quoted, in part, by permission :

At 6:38 A M., when the search planes were launched, we all supposed they were setting off on the day's prize mission. But while those planes were still circling, waiting for the last of the fighters to be launched, we heard a distant reverberation. Somewhere beyond the horizon, heavy guns were booming. Then a calm voice we recognized dispelled all uncertainty . The voice came to us J hrough the radio speaker there on the bridge It was the voice of Admiral C. A. F. Sprague

"We have enemy fleet consisting of battleships and cruisers fifteen miles astern of us-closing We are being fired on."

We were all dumbfounded. Through the night we had believed arrangements h ad been made to plug San Bernardino Strait, which was north of our task force . We had had no word about these Japanese ships coming through the strait until we heard the gunfire, followed by Admiral Sprague's report. We knew there were twentyfive or twenty-six ships in that centr al Jap force.

Captain Young knew the Omma ney B ay was as ready as we could make her. For six months we had carried about ten extra planes aboard. Our complement of mechanics had not been increased, yet had managed to give each plane its regular sixty-hour checkup. Our planes were ready. Guns were ready. Bombs were ready. Torpedoes were ready.

Captain Young, at 7:37, called the admiral and said, "We are ready to launch planes "

We were in an open formation. Providentially, there had been a change in the weather. In the preceding day, there had been scarcely any wind, but now it had strengthened. It had a force during the battle of twelve to seventeen knots. Otherwise we would have had difficulty in launching our heavily loaded torpedo planes or surely l and them

back aboard. At 7:45, our six carriers turned toward our still unseen pursuers and started launchin,1: torpedo planes and fighters.

Necessarily, we were losing distance to our pursuers during that launching, as we were actually steaming toward them. Consequently, the very instant the last plane was in the air, our carrier group again turned away from the wind and away from the enemy. It was just about then that our radio once more intercepted the voice of Admiral

"Look!" said Dean Black.

He pointed astern . Back there, seeming to rise out of the horizon, was a stiff wraith of smoke. Almost at once we distinguished two other, lesser smoke marks against the overcast. Each smudgy pillar came, we realized, from an enemy ship furiously burning oil trying to get us within range. We were the tail-end escort carrier on the right side of the formation closest to the enemy and probably within the space of minutes fated to become one of the choicest targets.

Our initial strike had been in the air about an hour, when our six escort carriers launched more torpedo planes and more fighters. A part of the initial strike had gone to attack the Japs. But some had remained, and these, now strongly reinforced by the second strike, got into formation and became our No 1 hope for staying afloat and alive.

By the time we were ready to turn out of the wind after launching that second strike, it was, I think, three minutes to nine, and that was about the time the mast of the foremost of our pursuers appeared above the horizon. Then quickly there came into view the masts of a second and a third enemy warship. Now our destroyers received an order to close up, to get as far out of range as they could, consistent with their job of protecting us. They were within two or three miles of us on our port side.

HE MADE A PERFECT STRIKE

C. A. F . Sprague giving some dismaying information. "We have been straddled for the last half hour," he said; adding, "The Japanese shooting is very poor."

Ab eam and as tern of him, several Jap heavy cruisers and battleships steadily were crawling up.

Bogeys were bothering us at this time In the fleet, for enemy plane we say "bogey." Any time we saw a bogey, it meant that the Japanese fleet, in effect, was seeing us We realized that Admiral Stump knew they were close to our own horizon when he ordered the three destroyers of our task group to take a position in column about five miles to our rear.

We were striving to keep our barnacle-encrusted hull up with the other ships of our own task group. Each of our ships was marking qn that green water a long white wake. Suddenly, near one of the destroyers to our rear, I saw a cluster of huge spurts rising from the sea. They were shell splashes. The salvo had fallen in a rippling line,

Then, close to the destroyers, there came an even more astonishing eruption out of the sea, this time of yellow and green geysers. These · gigantic splashes towered 200 feet or more. We understood this curious spectacle. There was faststaining dyestuff in the noses of those big Japanese shells, designed to identify each one as coming from a particular turret, to aid spotting work. We could tell that the Japs were shooting at usnot merely their cruisers' 8-inch guns but big 14-inchers of the Kongo-class battleship.

Another saivo struck. This time the splashes all were green and close-spaced. Leaping out of the sea, they curtained the hindmost destroyer. I would have given anything to see the long bow of the U. S. S. New Jersey coming up over our horizon.

After our torpedo planes had vanished north, the suspense was almost unbearable. The enemy salvos kept striking closer. All our planes were in the air. How could we possibly recover, load and launch another torpedo strike in time to save ourselves, should this one fail?

Astern of us about a mile, the sea again had cast up eight green and yellow geysers. At the same time we gpt the first report from the planes sent to deal with those who were chasing and shooting at us.

" Torpedo attack completed. No hits.''

We were aghast ; never had the J aps seemed so lo athsome to us as in the next few seconds.

Then wonderful news was intercepted, and

swiftly our despair was transformed-two of the three ships chasing us were seen to be slowing down. So there had been hits, after all; one target was a heavy cruiser and the other a Tone-class cruiser. The corrected report told us that one had certainly been hit by two torpedoes This gave us enormous relief and satisfaction. Almost immediately, we' got further word The two cruisers were stopped, dead in the water.

But the Japanese battleship, as if to show us she was not slowing down, right then plunged another salvo astern of us and a little closer than before. That salvo sobered us again . Before the shell splashes had quite subsided, we saw our planes returning for fresh ammunition and fuel, and we know we were, for the time being, at least, helpless to defend ourselves from that pursuing monster.

Torpedoes gone, our planes were stringing back, wanting to land aboard again. But to take them aboard, we would have to go into the wind, go deliberately into easy range of the battleship ' s guns. By the time we had landed three or four planes at most, that Kongo would have us straddled worse.

Then from Combat Information Center, Lieutenant Johnson reported that one of those returning torpedo-plane pilots circling overhead had a problem . When we learned the nature of it, that flier couldn't have grown more in importance if he had suddenly been recognized as the gen ie of Aladdin's lamp .

"I still have my torpedo," he was saying over the radio "Request instructions."

For tantalizing seconds, we couldn't distinguish him from the others. I was yelling for the signal men to see if they could pick out his number, when the pilot himself, Lt. (jg) Clark W. Miller solved our difficulty. He disclosed himself by opening his bomb-bay d,oors as he passed above us. His plane still carried a torpedo. We could see it plainly. What we gaped at was our one last chance to stop that battleship.

Miller had been dissatisfied with his run and , properly, had been unwilling to waste a thing as precious as his torpedo.

Miller got his instructions; " Go back and get that so-and-so of a Jap battleship-and fast."

We saw Miller peel off from the other planes and streak north alone. I did not envy him at the time. We had asked him, in effect, to go back and probably die trying to do the impossible. We knew they would be shooting at him thousands of times a minute.

Battleships, carriers and cruis ers are extraordinarily long, and the side of one makes a wonderful target for a torpedo. Usually, the commander of a ship so threatened tries to maneuver it on to a course parallel to the course of the torpedoes

launched against him. Then he has a ch ance to avoid them. In any case, the bow is the le ast vulnerable part of the ship. So the normal way of making a torpedo attack is fo r a number of planes to go in simultaneou sly. Usually they divide, so as to swoop down on both sides of the target, dropping their torpedoes in such a p attern as to frustrate all maneuvering But Mill er and his crew of two had one plane and one torpedo .

Miller and his two gunners flew right into all that anti-aircraft fire , low and close, so that whf.!n they did drop, there w as no longer any chance for the enemy to turn his ship out of the path of their torpedo. They went so close th at the rear gunner strafed the battleship deck as the plane ducked over it. And one of Miller ' s men took a picture of it.

Probably that battleship had been hit in our first attack , but not seriously damaged. However, Miller's hit really discouraged the Jap skipper. The ship ceased firing, circled from her course and headed back toward that other force of Japanese ships.

Every man I could see was laughing and exclaiming as people do right after the stroke of midnight on New Year's Eve When Miller and his crew landed aboard the Ommaney B ay, their plane was badly shot up and was smoking alarmingly.

Now it is learned that Miller was aboard the Ommaney Bay when it was sunk later and that he miraculously escaped. He said he dived overboard into the ocean and floated and swam around for about an hour before he was picked up by a United States destroyer. The lieutenant said censorship regulations prohibited him from telling the date and place of the sinking of the car"rier

After being picked up by the destroyer , Lt. Miller returned to the United States and landed at San Francisco February 6.

There were about 500 men on the vessel at the time, Lt. Miller stated. The escort carrier was a part of the Seventh Fleet and it cost approximately $10 , 000,000 to build. His squadron had been attached to the Ommaney Bay ever since it was put into service about a year ago.

When asked if he knew about the article in the Saturday Ev ening Post , he said the first he heard about it was when he stopped at Pearl Harbor while enroute home. He said he thought the boys "were kidding me. "

OUR DIAMOND GOES TO YALE

ABIT OVER a century ago the first effort was made to install Beta at Yale. The Fraternity itself was just five years old when, in 1844, George Hoadly, Western Reserve and Harvard 1844 (who later became governor of Ohio) foresaw the impending demise of our Harvard chapter and gallantly strove to switch its charter to Yale. Our mother chapter at Miami sanctioned the move. But of the intended recipients at New Haven, one John Coon, an Ohio University Beta, had himself unfortunately switched to Psi Upsilon in the interim ... a wee contretemps! TI10ugh perhaps ourshall we say "half-brother" ?-should not be unduly reproached for his apostasy, since all fraternities were then in their infancy, with "switching" and "lifting" rather prevalent. Indeed, in those bygone decades, a number of great Betas were deftly corralled from our rivals' ranks, so how may we consistently complain?

While little is recorded of the other intended recipients, mightn't these "Yalies" have felt a trifle chilly toward a second -hand Harvard charter? We cherish our ancient contemporary at Cambridge, but when it comes to the Crimson's cast-off habiliments!

ha, well, whose old clotites do you wear? Yet we thank thee, fair Harvard, for offering thy noble, if tattered, toga.

Next, we skip along to 1867, when a petition for a chapter at Yale was received and favorably acted upon, though its -signers are not divulged. Our eminent historian, Dr. Shepardson, does say, however, that the matter was entrusted to one George Perkins, Knox '67, while a student at Yale. And, without further elucidation, "Shep" says of Perkins: "He finally reported his inability

to establish the proposed chapter." Thus ended our second attempt.

But that rugged old sire, Father Wooglin, is a dogged fighter! At last, in 1890, the first seeds of our final triumphant debut were sown, for in that summer, Otis Fisk,

THE FIRST YALE CHAPTER HOUSE

The "Tomb" on Crown Street

'92, met John I. Covington, Miami '70 (then General Treasurer of IIi) Both men were high Masons, so we probably have some big Mecca Temple rally in New York to thank for their chance meeting and happy discussion, with its significant consequences for Betadom at Yale.

Yet those early events are blurred by the mists of time. Our Beta annals are .far too silent. And the participants in this little drama have mostly crossed the Divide. So we are driven somewhat to conjecture.

This much, however, emerges with clarity. Besides John I. Covington who is accredited as the main founder of the Yale chapter, our other sponsors included James T. Brown, Cornell '76, known to many living Betas as the fraternity ' s Keeper of the Rolls; also, Clifford W. Barnes, Califor nia '89, destined to be one of Chicago ' s truly great ministers; and last but not least, Francis Wayland Shepardson, Denison '82, Brown· ' 83, who actually taking his Ph.D. at Yale in those "crucial" ·days and later became Beta's beloved President, as all Betas know.

Just what role each man played may never be told, but all were in there striving mightily to establish Beta beneath the elms at "old Eli." Covington had given Otis Fisk carte blanche to round up some and before long Fisk had marshalled our first delegation: Fisk himself, Alfred Chace, Ralph Upton, all ' 92, also " Bill" Bailey and Albert Briggs, both '9 4 .

The calibre of these men is attested by their sturdy careers in after life. Fisk and Chace became eminent lawyers, especially Fisk in Cincinnati, where he taught medical jurisprudence at the local university and later served as dean of the Harvard law school during the absence of Roscoe Pound. Upton was also a lawyer of note ·until hi death in Seattle and wa s the first Beta to represent Yale in our joint-debate with Harvard . Bailey rapidly rose to enviable heights on the Yale faculty, first as a populau' "•Prof" of political economy, then of practical philanthropy, and he now holds a unique post as the skilled economist for the Travelers Insurance Co. in Hartford. Briggs studied medicine at Harvard and became a well-known doctor in Boston. Do you detect a single ne'er -do-well there?

Surely our fate was in safe hands ·from the first. And the initiation of these stalwarts was a colorful affair . Naturally a dispensation was required, being issued first to the

Brown chapter, but later transferred, at Yale's request, to the Columbia chapter So on March 5, 1891, our men came to New York for dinner, theatre and the formal initiation, followed by a banquet lasting till .four next morning those were the Gay

Nineties, you know. And dear Columbia, we hail thee as our gracious "god-father!"

A second initiation was held May ·1, 1891 at Columbia, and others soon followed at Wesleyan in Middletown, Conn., with which chapter we also had most cordial relations, playing them •in football, whist and what not.

Meanwhile, at the Wooglin-on-Chautauqua Convention, August 3 to 8, 1891, our charter came up for action . . . or should it be "reaction " ? . . . as it met with stern opposition from eleven chapters whose main objection was to the peculiar class society system in vogue at Yale, which seemed at odds with Beta's standards . After many stormy sessions, however , on the last day , August 8 (already a great Beta date), Yale:s charter was voted through "amid the wildest

ovation, with even some tears of joy," say the chroniclers.

The laurels for this signal victory must go to our invincible sponsors, Covington and Barnes, as well as our delegate, Fisk, all three of whom fired ceaseless barrage from the floor, and they may have been aided by Chace.

In any event, Fisk and Chace had all along shown up as the two most dominant figures in our '92 delegation, so much so that our chapter was thereupon christened and designated as "Phi Chi" which is of course simply a Hellenization (polite, valid noun!) of the first letters in their names.

"Shep" chuckles a bit at this' title as being "exceptional and irregular." Possibly so, but Phi Chi was destined to bring credit and kudos to the fraternity, to Yale and itself, "for a' that." And now that we were officially chartered, all that remained to our legal entity was the .formal installation. May we reciprocate Shep's genial chuckle here? . . . for he misquotes that date as February 19, 1892, despite his the\} being right in Yale. Our installation actually occurred February 27, 1892, for which date "Bill" Bailey has proof that is hard to refute, as he kept diaries. Also, Fisk confirms February 27 on page 102 of the August, 1892, Magazine.

And these ceremonies were not without lustre. Many Betas were present. Phi Chi had added new members, neighboring colleges sent representatives, and among the official "big-wigs" were Covington, James Brown and William Raimond Baird, Stevens '78, Columbia ' 82. A buffet luncheon was served at the chapter's headquarters, followed by the formal investiture, speeches and Beta songs of good cheer. Our beloved diamond was now definitely ensconced at Yale.

But the real battle lay ahead. All realized this, for it is well-known that Yale is no pushover for any fraternal newcomer, even the best, because competition is stiff, perhaps stiffer than in most other colleges, due to the peculiar and society system that prevails there. We were also faced with

the immense prestige acquired by our rivals in their long tenure before us.

In order that the non-Yale Beta may have a more intelligent grasp of this problem as well as appreciate the odds we had to overcome before finally achieving our place in the sun, let's briefly review the top points.

In 1892, Delta Kappa Epsilon, Psi Upsilon and Alpha Delta Phi were a powerful trio. And remember, "Deke" was a "holy" Yale institution, having been founded there in 1844. Perhaps they are still ace-high, but we now pressing them hard. If we haven't quite caught up with them as yet, W ooglin vows that we soon shall.

, Psi Upsilon was also strong, being close to Deke's heels and even older, as they entered Yale in 1838, while Alpha Delta was the oldest of all, 1836, though they had dropped out during the Civil War and were revived in 1888, so did not hit their full stride till shortly after our entry in 18!n. Allah knows this was a hard combination to buck, since they got the cream of each Class, nor did it end there, as Zeta Psi and Sigma Nu had entered in 1888 and 1889. Three years later when we came, however the "Zetes" were just getting started, while the Sigma Nus had withdrawn their charter.

That was not too cheering a spectacle, but our men kept cool and fought with quiet gameness. We had one minor advantage. Not yet being members of the Junior Interfraternity Agreement which proscribes the election of freshmen, we felt at liberty to recruit a few good plebes in advance.

But this was contrary to the Yale code. Rightly or wrongly, the Elis park their freshies "in the doghouse," preferring a year of grace in which to study and appraise these ' unblessed pups Most other colleges disagree with us on this policy Also, please don't forget that the 1891 Beta Convention had indirectly demurred at that feature, too, erroneously regarding Yale fraternities as being strictly a Junior Class affair.

Such is not the case. Indeed, the term "Junior Fraternity" is a misnomer, as each Yale fraternity draws its membership from

all three of the upper classes, taking the bulk of them early in sophomore year.

And these elections are governed by the Junior Interfraternity Agreement, which we eventually joined , with the full consent of the Beta officers. We have lived up to this Agreement rigidly and mostly willingly, but you shall decide whether it isn't a bit "exacting and peculiar " . . . if fascinating.

As the campus clocks chime seven on certain specified- evenings, all candidates are simultaneously given elections, or "holdoffs," in their rooms by the entire fraternity bodies It is very swift. There can be no advance nor subsequent pledging. You may take only a prescribed number of men, and you won't get them unless you move fast. Where several fraternity rivals are angling for the same prominent candidate, they flip a coin as to who first enters his room. It is a glorious, mad scramble, but exciting, even thrilling, and has subsisted at Yale for the better part of a century.

But it has a latent catch . Due to all this swiftness , just one thing counts, and that is prestige . There is no time to argue, plead or negotiate. You must get a quick "yes" or "no," and it will be mostly "noes" unless you have the requisite social glamour. Bank on it, everything at Yale is keyed to inherent prestige. And frankly, in 1892, Phi Chi did not possess this, on its own merit, despite Beta's national reputation .

Also , unlike our rivals, we had no house then, but rented top floor rooms in the farfrom-ritzy Insurance building down on Chapel street, where we made our happy if humble home f<;>r the first twelve years.

That was a trying period, with many dark days overshadowing our occasional triumphs .. A few of our group even feared the worst. In 1897, the General Fraternity investigated us searchingly, if sympathetically, with a final go-ahead signal. Around then, a note of humor crept in the ' 'Zetes" stole our charter, which we soon retrieved, however ! Perhaps we should thank them, since such impish little episodes often serve to regalvanize sinking spirits.

But this is not to imply that our sense of

defeatism was general. To the contrary, most of our men were full of ginger, grit and gusto, despite the handicaps of no house, no membership in the Junior Agreement and no self-earned prestige, as yet. In fact, we kept right on initiating a few able men from

each Class, and since it is to their stamina and staying-power that we owe our ultimate rich heritage, let's glance at their life-records and see hf they weren't a credit to Betadom and worthy of this great trust at Yale.

Besides the five charter members, already enscrolled, there were (to name but a few , whose records are well-known): Charles Frost, '92, a successful journalist, owning the Plainfield (N.J.) Courier-News, whose gracious widow later donated $5000 to Phi Chi's library. And from '94 came four able

lawyers, Buell McKeever, W. H. Duncan, Frank Haradon and William Allison, the last-named also being a lieutenant commander in World War I, while Haradon, who still survives, served in the Cuban War. Phillip Evans, '95, taking his M.D. at Johns Hopkins, went to China as a missionary, teaching medicine for many years at Nanking College. Also in '95 were District

Bethany), founder of the Claremont school, head of a New Mexico college and now an editor of Christian Century; Lewis Conklin, '96, who is still a prominent New York lawyer; Fred Luquiens, '97, author and professor at Yale, of which faculty Edward Durfee, '96, was also a member; Acton Poulet, '97, a Standard Oil manager in IndoChina; S. K. Mitchell, '98, another Yale professor; Walter Rile, '99, a leading Philadelphia physician, while George Whipple, '00, was a professor and then dean of the medical school at the University of Rochester; James Hubbell, '02, who achieved the presidency of the New York Telephone Co . before his recent death; and Clarence Mendell, '04, who rose to be the distinguished and popular Dean of Yale for many years and is now a commander in the U.S.N.R.

HE HELPED PHI CHI CHAPTER

Clifford W. Barne s, California '89

Chief Russell Marks, a lawyer of high standing in Sioux City, and John Lockwood, a leading New York attorney, while Alburn Skinner now heads Inc., in New York. George Buck '96, became the mayor of Buffalo. And Ralph Treadway, '96, a prominent lawyer out Chicago way, rowed on the Yale varsity and was captain of the all-American crew at the Henley Regatta. He was the first Beta to be tapped for Skull and Bones, since when a large number of our leading chapter members have been honored by election to the various senior • societies which are such a hallowed tradition at Yale.

Space will not permit a full listing, but no record can be adequate that omits such names as: W. E. Garrison, '94 (also

"To reap as one sows" is the phrase of Galatians, and with men of such substance in our early ranks, is it any wonder that Phi Chi reaped well and weathered the storm? Moreover, the tide now began to turn. Our '04 and '05 delegations were doubled, and leaped forward with each succeeding Class, till in a few years our membership had attained the full complement of approximately one hundred men the standard quota for Yale wherein we differ from all other Beta chapters, and, indeed, from most other colleges. But again, Beta officialdom gave us their blessings

At last, in 1904, we acquired our first house, a residence on Crown street which we converted into an iron-doored, windowless "tomb" to conform to the unique Yale custom. This was a social bo.on to Phi Chi, but took more money than o'ur still small chapter could subscribe. Through the good offices of "Jim" Brown, however, wellto-do Cornell Betas were induced to advance us sizable loans without security! Such heaven-sent largess typifies the Beta spirit at its biggest and best! We soon repaid these generous loans and our hats are ever off to the Cornell chapter in humble gratitude. This precious "mausoleum" of ours, having no contacts with the outside world, such as the postman, the bill-collector or the

law, also required a separate holding company to manage its mundane affairs. Thus, / in 1904, the "Covington Trust Association" was incorporated by Phi Chi, being named for our main founder, John Covington, while the legal technicalities were handled by Judge Edward Steele, Wesleyan '94. The Association's first long-term treasurer was Gerard Jensen, '07, who served most ably till 1919 when "Jack" Ryan, '08, took over and is still at the helm after twenty-s,ix years of selfless devotion to the expert management of Beta's finances at Yale .

1906 saw our first participation in the "Calcium-Light Night" parade on the campus, being a picturesque feature of the big Autumn elections from the sophomore class, when the Junior Fraternities, singing lustily and gowned distinctively, march about under the glare of calc ium-lights before greeting their new members. This ritual is a phase of the Junior Agreement.

And by now Phi Chi had almost outgrown its tomb, as a hundred men is a breathless tight-fit in any mausoleum, ·no matter how well ventilated ! So we Betas began hoarding up a reserve and casting about for better quarters.

Finally, in 1916, the chapter built a fine colonial-type home of red brick and marbletrim on High street. But it flabbergasted those good Elis .for it was an "open-house" ... a shocking novelty at tomb-ridden Yale, the center of hoary traditions and cozy graveyard appurtenances. It was so daringly original as to stir up endless chatter and even make the front-pages However, the Betas had achieved a new milestone of progress, as the other fraternities soon followed suit with open-houses of their own. The tomb is well-adapted for the smaller, exclusive Senior Societies, but not for the big bulky Juniors.

Things ran along happily, with good delegations and growing prestige, until 1918, when the chapter was temporarily closed down, sincf' almost its entire undergraduate membership was engaged in World War I.

And with the expansion of Yale in the post-war era, Chi Psi joined our family of

fraternities in 192 4, though their comparatively smooth debut was in sharp contrast to our bare-fisted entry back in 1892. Knowing how rough the going might prove, the wily Chi Psis consented to enter only on con-

clition that they be permitted to pledge men ahead of the regular elections for a while, along with certain other concessions, which were finally granted, and as a result they have fared well. Incidentally, Alpha Sigma Phi also became a Junior Fraternity in 1924, but without and their path has not been as easy.

During the latter twenties, thanks to the munificence of some huge alumni bequests and systematic graduate subscriptions, Yale University embarked upon a colossal building campaign, which has produced perhaps the finest university equipment on earth. Unhappily for us Betas, these expansion plans necessitated the demolition of our lovely High street home to make way for the new Memorial Library, but the university treated us very handsomely, both as to remuneration and by way of providing new

space for us in the Fraternity Row on York street, where, in 1927, we built our third and present house.

This was designed by a noted architect and is the last word in modern fraternity architectural style, being of Tudor design, or English Gothic, of buff brick with stonetrim .. Attractive as its exterior is, its interior is even more so, being equipped with an ornate reception-hall and lounge, with a stage, large dining-hall, convertible ballroom or theatre, library, poolroom, buffetgrill and even a bar, while the secret chapterhall is at the top. By faculty rule, no fraternities live in their houses, though the Betas have a few special guest bed-rooms a,nd are allowed to take certain meals in the house.

The chapter has thrived socially since 1927 in this refined York street home, which, upon acquisition, had been paid for in part, but with a large balance, alas, subject to a mortgage. Then came the 1929 crash, with its long, blighting depression, which, by 1934, had so strained Phi Chi's finances that our mortgage backfired violently. . The situation was acute! · desperate!

· There seemed no alternative save a hammer-sale which would have put us on the street, penniless, with no roof at all. At this critical juncture, "Clare" Mendell, '04; then Dean of Yale, scintillated with a flash of genius, having conceived and executed the clever plan of selling the house to the universit;y, and then he induced them to lease it back to us at a gentle rental which we could swing. In these negotiations, he was aided by Fuller Barnes, Edward Ingraham and others, though the main inspiration must be credited to him.

To be sure, it was heart-breaking to Betas everywhere to lose title to this prized property. But, by the grace of Heaven, there will come· a happier day when we may buy it back, regaining permanent possession!

Despite Phi Chi ' s financial reverses, she kept on prospering socially right up to the summer of 1943, when, with the entire undergraduate chapter pouring into War activities, our house was closed down, and was leased by the university to the Foreign

Languages school (a subsidiary War unit)

Shortly before this, in 1942, we had celebrated our fiftieth anniversary, even though the festivities were a bit curtailed by the pall of war. And, with the cessation of hostilities, about 1946, Deo volente, the chapter will be revived. While we have no future lease as yet, the university may always be relied upon implicitly to do the righb thing, for if Yale really has any faults, certainly her high ethics of procedure has never been impugned!

But this grand reopening will call for tremendous alumni support, both moral and financial, to say nothing of "physical," for, of course, there will be a huge rally of grads on deck to help start things rolling again. Our magnificent war record would alone justify all this response. There will be many returning heroes to welcome back, while others, sad to say, can never return in the flesh, but their valorous sacrifice will ever be graven in our hearts and Mystic Shrine that greatest chapter of all, the Valhalla of Betadom . They shall not have died in vain !

In addition, we have a just pride in our splendid chapter to uphold. It must never wane! If Yale confers dignity and distinctivn upon us, as she unquestionably does, likewise Beta Theta Pi brings added strength and lustre to this venerable institution. May that ever survive.

An.d in conclusion, the dominant note we would leave with you is well put by "Charlie" Hulburt, '94, who, though now blind, sees clearly when he writes: "Our . early disappointments were many, yet we kept our standards high and· need never apologize for the men we chose as our associates in Phi Chi." How true. Those pioneer Betas of the Nineties were men of vision, courage and real stature, to whom we owe everything. To them we would dedicate this little paper (despite its many imperfections) as a most deserved, if belated, tribute of gratitude They brought our Diamond safely to Yale. We of today, God willing, shall keep it there as the bright, unsullied emblem of the purest brotherhood among men. Long life to Phi Chi and Beta Theta Pi!

ttJIMMY" JOHNSTON-ONE MAN ARMY

Classmates of James V . Johnston, Oregon· State '39, and those of us who were around the cqapter house at Corvallis during the years 1935 to 1939 would hardly have picked "Jimmy" Johnston as a candidate for assuming the role of a Tom Mix or the Lone Ranger and turning the heat on the German army with a blazing six-gun as a one-man army He would probably be better remembered as a likable kid who played the saxophone in the college band and made his way through school playing in dance bands on the campus and in the neighboring territory. But it all comes out now in a dispatch from the Belgian front in a delayed dispatch dated January 18, 1945. His exploits were of sufficient importance and interest· that Kenneth L. Dixon, Associated Press staff writer, devoted nearly a column to tell about it. Dixon was there, so he can tell it better than anyone else. In his words the story goes as follows:

IT TOOK nearly six years and transfers through six outfits for Capt. James V. Johnston to reach .combat, but once he did the pint-sized ball of fire from Portland, Oregon, became a literal legend on the western front in less than six weeks.

Weighing 127 pounds (with equipment) and standing 5 feet 5 inches tall, he so distinguished himself in his first action that on the third day he was given temporary command of his battalion when the commander was wounded.

In the last two months he has commanded an infantry battalion four times-a job which normally calls for a lieutenant colonel. He has led half a dozen "march fire" assaults which consist of firing from the hip on the run as the doughboys break out of cover to attack.

Also, he has killed countless Germans with various weapons-three by thumb-fanning his old .45 while riding in a jeep, and others with implements va+ying from hand grenades to a borrowed tank.

"Jimmy" was too long getting into action to pay much attention to standard procedure.

Twenty-eight years old, he was graduated from Oregon State College in 1939, entered the army as a second lieutenant in the reserve corps and joined the 15th infantry regiment. He served with the amphibious command, army air force, and the infantry

replacement training center at Fort Benning, Ga., before joining the 84th Division last March. He was made commanding officer of · a headquarters company, but his request for line duty brought him transfer to a heavyweapons company.

In his first action near Geilenkirchen, Germany, shortly after he was ordered to take over the outfit, he was ordered to pull a company out of a trap. He crawled 1200 yard's across an open field under heavy machine gun and sniper fire. After dark, he guided the whole outfit safely to a reinforced position.

Near Gereonsweiler, Germany, he led an

attack which jumped off at 6 A.M. By noon he held the objective after killing 20 Germans and capturing 86 prisoners.

In the same sector his men once were held up by machine gun fire. Crawling into a tank, Johnston directed the driver to within 50 yards of the enemy position and opened fire with the tank's .75, killing seven Germans.

During the MullendorE attack he led the way, running and firing machine pistols. Fift'een minutes after the jump-off, he walked down the steps of the erstwhile enemy headquarters with the nazis' flag under one arm and a cigar in his mouth. In taking 88 prisoners and 16 pillboxes, his battalion had lost two men killed and six wounded.

"It was because we used 'march fire' all the way," said Johnston.

His most typical deed came when the battalion was losing equipment to a mine field through a supply line was run-

ning to reach combat fighters. He took a trench knife and cleared a pathway through the field. Next day engineers working with mechanical detonators found 18 separate explosives under the snow, right where he had been crawling along, probing for and removing mines !

Since the above story was written, the young hero's parents, Mr. and Mrs James V. Johnston, have received two reports from the front lines. The first stated that their son had been raised to the rank of major and awarded the Bronze Star, which made them very happy. The second was a news dispatch, dated March 27: "'

1

The Western front's three-gun indestructible midget is dead. He di ed as he sometimes expressed the hope he would-by a direct hit from an 88. He was Major James V. Johnston, 28, 5-foot 5-inch fighting machine. In a few short weeks he had become a legend with the 84th Infantry division. No one kn:ows how many Germ ans he disposed of. In one attack alone, he killed 20 and captured 88. He was in the fore-fron t of every fight the division had.

GERTRUDE GUTELIUS AND THE BLUFFTON LEGEND

IN MANY a small city and county seat town throughout the country, there is a legend that "this is a Beta town." This usually may be explained by the jealous interest of some loyal member of the fraternity who has kept in his heart his interest and has recommended young men to the college chapters of the state. But now and then this . legend has its roots in the loyalty of a " member who does not belong."

Mrs. Gertrude Smith Gutelius , beloved mother of Charles B. Gutelius, Indiana '05, somet imes district chief, trustee and acting president of Beta Theta Pi, is in large part responsible for the many fine Betas who have come from Bluffton, Indiana, the seat of Wells county '

The 1850 Indiana Gazeteer says of Bluffton:

Bluffton, the Seat of Justice of Wells county , is situated on the Wabash river, near the center of the count y, 25 miles south of Fort Wayne and 101 northeast of Indian a polis It contains a good Court Hou se, Jail and public offices; Churches for the United Brethren, Presbyterians, Methodist s and Christians and a population of 500. It was first settled in 1838

For fifty years there has been a ,representative of this town in one of the five chapters in the Hoosier state, or at Denison, Missouri, Michigan or elsewhere. Now this is a fine record.

Perhaps the first Bluffton Beta was Newton Burwell, Indiana '58, who was born in Fairfield county, Ohio, in 1836. A lawyer, preacher, lumber dealer, and a member of the Indiana general assembly in 1865, Burwell later moved to Oklahoma and there became the "pater" of Gamma Phi chapter.

Gertrude Smith Gutelius, the daughter of Daniel Bradford and Margaret (Bowes)

Smith, was born in Ill., August 1, 1856. As a girl she attended a Catholic academy there and later entered the Granville Female Academy, Ohio, one of the institutions which were merged into the present Denison University in Granville. As a girl there she knew Francis Wayland Shepardson and for a time wore the badge of a member of Alpha Eta. She was married to Thomas Gutelius, June 7, 1877, and the new home was in Bluffton. In this little community she became a part of the church and social life.

Soon Frank C. Dailey, DePauw '93, In-' diana '94, entered college and thus began the Gutelius-Dailey line. His brother, Charles Gutelius Dailey, Indiana '98, was next on the roll. Both were nephews of Mrs. Gutelius as is Ralph Parsons Smith, Denison '88, Mrs. Gutelius was the great aunt of yet another generation: Field T. Dailey, Indiana '17; Joseph L. Dailey, Indiana '17; George S. Dailey, Indiana '25; Robert M. Dailey, Indiana '26; Roger L. Dailey, Indiana '21; Lewis N. Justus, Purdue '24; and Paul Gutelius Williams, Hanover '31.

And she was the great-great aunt of Myron Lusk, III, Beloit '39; Justus Webber, Den-ison '45, and Edwin Towne, Yale '45. Mrs. Guteliu s also was the grandmother of Harry Brooks Gutelius, Missouri '37.

In recalling his own "rush" from the Betas at Bloomington, Dr. Charles Gutelius tells of talking with Frank Dailey in Bluffton. Dailey wrote out a recommendation to the boys at Pi at the turn of the century, and then had "Charlie" go around town and collect the signatures of the other nine Betas himself ! The subsequent district chief, vice president and acting president of Beta Theta Pi arrived in Bloomington in the fall of 1901 on a Monday afternoon in September. He just "happened" to meet Fred D. Rose, Indiana '05, on the train. Rose is the son of the late Theodore F. Rose, Indiana '75, who served for a time as chairman of the board of trustees of the university. Dr . Gu-

telius was pledged the next day and initiated the following Saturday night in a third-floor room of the old chapter house at 708 East Third street.

Mrs. Gutelius' interest in other chapters as well as Pi continued and she visited each chapter house in Indiana. Some years later she also was elected to honorary membership

SHE CREATED A "BETA LEGEND"

Mrs. Gertrude Gutelius, mother of Dr. Charles B. Gtttelius, Indiana '05

of the Indiana University Beta Mothers' association. She moved to Indianapolis in 1903 and was associated with several musical and church societies.

She died in Indianapolis, May 28, 1943.

None has "counted " the roll of Betas from Bluffton, but there are known to be more than 75 who have claimed the Wells county seat as their home. The Bluffton Street Fair, celebrated in song and chapter story; the Bliss hotel, the Kunkel farms; Fred Tangeman's piano playing; the Gutelius-Dailey legend-all these are a part of the home of these Hoosier Betas.

Bet as of Achievement

CHARLES FREDERICK FRANKLAND, Washington (Seattle), '22, on January 9, 1945, was elected president of the Pacific National Bank of Seattle, Wash. The promo.tion climaxes a career of 21 years in the banking field and at 44 years of age he becomes one of the Pacific Coast's youngest metropolitan bank presidents. The Pacific National Bank is a $114,000,000 institution.

Frankland joined the Pacific National in 1928 in the investment department, and in 1933 accepted the responsibility of clearing up the tangled business affairs of the Associated Students of the University of Washington.

During the last year of his work at the university he acted as comptroller for the university, and in 1936 having worked out a financial stabilization plan for the student finances, he returned to the Pacific National bank as assistant vice president.

His rise was rapid from that time on, for in 193 7 he was elected vice president, in 1943 a member of the board of directors.

EVERT LEE STANCLIFF, Nebraska '13, senior economic analyst, Department of State, has the signed honor of being the first industrial envoy to be sent to another country by the United States. At present he is attached to the econ'omic section of the American embassy in Mexico City as consultant and adviser on industrial development.

Previous to his entering the service of the government in 1942 on a war-time assignment as an industrial manager, adviser, and analyst, he was president of Stancli1f and Co., industrial and business consultants, analysts, and re -organization managers with main offices in Los Angeles , Calif.

Stancliff has served as industrial adviser to the American section 'of the MexicanAmerican Commission for Economic Cooperation and represents the Department of State as a member of the joint MexicanAmerican Industrial sub-committee, which has recently completed its report on Mexican industrial plans for 1945.

"SONS OF THE DRAGON" -fit

A Colonel m Russia

Col. Thomas K. Hampton, U.C.L.A. '32, has recently taken over command of the Eastern Command, United States ·Strategic Air Forces in Europe.

Shortly after Eastern Command was founded in Russia for the famed "two way" shuttle bombings by American heavies over what Hitler once boasted were the "safe" areas of his now crumbled empire, Major Gen. Robert L. Walsh personally' invited Hampton to the operations section of the command.

Col. Hampton has been in the Soviet Union since July . Because of the nature of his work he found himself going to various parts of the country and in some instances very close to the front lines where brisk artillery and aerial battles were going full blast As a consequence, he has been able to see a great deal of the manner in which the Soviet people conduct their war and how much the country .has suffered since the fateful day in June, 1941, when Hitler's legions over-ran western Russia. In commenting on , his experiences, Col. Hampton said:

The destruction of the cities has been appalling. Take the city near our base. Before the war this town had a population of approximately 150,000 people. The skeletons of the buildings that remain give one the impression that this has been a fairly modern residential city . Its streets are rather well laid out and most have a boulevard touch to them. It must have been a green city with plenty of flowers.

When the Nazis left, however, they made sure that not a single building that might have a military or civic use remained. Methodically they went from block to block setting fire to the homes, government buildings and even hospitals.

The best of what the Russian people have finds itself going to where the battle rages. I've

seen some of their advance fighter bases, and their hospitals in the rear but the latter automatically fall into the secondary category.

Col. Hampton says that despite the unending grind the "people manage to continue to retain their sense of humor." He observes that Russian humor appears to be very much akin to the American type and the people have a faculty of making as much out of life as circumstances will permit. They like to dance, to sing and have concerts.

In Moscow, according to the colonel, where American soldiers may go for short furlough, they find a ready hospitality of Soviet agencies. He says that Moscow, under war conditions, is even more crowded than Washington. Yet, when American soldiers arrive there, the lntourist agency is always on hand, providing hotel facilities and extenaing some genuine, old-fashioned hospitality as well as tickets to the worldrenowned Russian ballet at the Bolshoi theater.

Col. Hampton has been with the Army seven years and has seen service in various parts of the world. At the outbreak of hostilities he was stationed in Panama and remained in different sections of Central and South America in command of a Flying Fortress squadron until early in 1943 when he returned to the States.

Assigned as deputy commander of the 46th Bombardment Training wing, he remained in that capacity until selected for the Command and General Staff school at Leavenworth and the Air Staff school. Subsequently he was assigned to the Mediterranean Allied Air Force headquarters in Italy.

An Escape in the China Sea

Nearly three years after he was captured at the fall of Bataan, Lt. Robert S. Overbeck, Columbia '38, miraculously escaped when a Jap prison ship sank in the China sea last October. He was one of .five emaciated survivors among a group of 1,800 soldiers and civilians aboard.

Overbeck, after being graduated from Columbia's school of mining engineering, went to the Philippines in 1939, where he held several different positions in mining work, mostly with the Benguet Consolidated Mining Corp. When the war broke out, he went with the army to Bataan and was captured when it fell to the Japanese.

About 30 months later, he was one of 1,800 prisoners of war who were jammed into the .filthy hold of a small J ap transport, after living through the horrors of several enemy work camps in the Philippines. As the ship got under way, the second American r"aid on Manila had started. It was October 11, 1944. The ship, thought to have

been a part of a convoy, hid among some islands for several days and then struck out across the China sea.

Each prisoner was fed but one teacup of rice twice daily and one canteen of dirty water a day. Many became ill as the heat was stifling and the stench was unbearable: Most of the prisoners could only stand or squat because they were crowded tightly together. Hundreds went out of their minds

Early in the evening of October 24 there was a. babble of voices on deck as the crew fled .first to one end of the ship, then to the opposite end. Then there came a tremendous jolt which wrenched the steel hull apart amidships, partially exposing the hold where the prisoners were held. The ship had been struck by a torpedo from an allied submarine.

Every man who could move clambered on deck. The Japs were too busy saving themselves to interfere with . the prisoners. Hundreds of helpless men swam about as two Jap destroyers churned the water with

A SERGEANT FROM ST . -LAWRENCE

They call it "Dead Heinie Hill."

That's where SjSgt. James W. Logan, St. Lawr en ce '45, machine-gunned 50 Germans in an hour and a half, and stopped only when no more came out of the brush and mist toward him. In that same hour and a half, his platoon, with four 30-calibre machine guns and 21 men, stopped the advance of an entire German battalion. Perched on a hill that overlooked one of the Nazi main escape routes, the second platoon of Co. D., lOlst Infantry, along with Co. B, routed a fantastic German counterattack that attempted to retake the strategic ground.

. Twenty -year-old Logan, a freshman at St. Lawrence before the Army called him, took over a machine gun from an inexperienced man in his squad, while the rest of his men picked up carbines. A German crept within 20 yards of him, and tossed a concussion grenade that landed a few feet away and went off. "I didn't mind it," Logan said, "J turned the gun on the Jerry, and that was that."

He sa id it was the most exciting time he ' d run into since coming overseas as a privatean ammunition bearer in the same outfit. " I carried on a running conversation with another soldier, an infantry volunteer from an M.P. unit," he remembers, "That's what I enjoyed most-laughing at his jokes in the short breaks betw-een attacks I asked him if he was still glad he volunteered and he said, ' Sure, I haven't had enough.' Then his gun jammed and he got it fixed just in time to knock off a new bunch of Germans just a few feet away. Just like a movie. We didn't need to aim our guns , the Germans came, stum-

When his own ammunition started running low, he dr pped his carbine and picked up German arms and ammunition. At one time, the Germans came with their arms in the air, crying that they wanted to surrender, and then suddenly firing with the burp guns. After that Logan didn't wait to find out whether they wanted to surrender or not.

"We were all excited," Logan explained. "W couldn't understand why they kept commg-but they did. I don't know how many were killed; they were hauled away in truckloads."

For this heroic exploit, Staff Serg eant Logan has been awarded · the Silver Star. (BUELL H. BEDFORD, Beloit '29)

Ohio State '23, has been awarded the Bronze Star. He also wears campaign stars for the three major airborne invasions-Normandy, Southern France and Holland-as well as the Presidential Unit citation for meritorious achievement in D-Day invasion of the Cherbourg peninsula.

Another Bronze Star winner is Capt. William A. Cornell, Denison '38, S.C., U.S.A., who has been awarded the Bronze Star for meritorious service "somewhere in France." He was employed by the Ohio Bell Telephone Co. prior to receiving a commission in November, 1942. Both officers are from Cleveland. (GEORGE M. BROWN, Ohio '31)

A HERO OF WASHINGTON AND JEFFERSON

First Lt. William B. Pringle, Washington and Jefferson '34, has been awarded the Bronze Star Medal for heroic service in France last September. He was serving as survey officer for an attacking armored clivi-

sion during which time his unit was subjected to intense mortar, artillery and machine gun fire from German strongholds. Lt. Pringl.e "immediately instituted position area surveys, which were essential to the coordination and employment of the fire of the battalion since only small scale maps were available." His citation states that he exposed himself to devastating enemy fire, disregarding his personal safety and displaying a marked degree of initiative and resourcefulness after all other personnel in the area had taken cover.

Burton made a reconnaissance of the area , selected a site for the b ypass and directed the completion of the new route with a minimum of lost time.

Throughout the operation the immediate area was subjected to heavy enemy artillery fue. As a result of Lt. Burton's demonstrated initiative and personal courage, tanks were ilile to support to infantry assault teams so that an important tactical objective was captured .

In the November issue of the Magazine appeared the obituary tribute to the memory of Lt. John Edmund Dale, Jr., Dickinson '40, Amherst '40, first pilot of a Liberator bomber, who was killed in a take-off crash May 11, 1943 in French Morocco. When this item brought back memories, Chaplain Koch checked his records to make sure that he was the chaplain who conducted the services for the men in that plane who were buried with full military honors.

In his letter Capt. Koch writes, "Early in the morning of May 11, 1943, about daybreak, we who were still asleep were literally blasted awake by the sound and concussion of what we thought must be an explosion in the next field where some French troops were stationed. It turned out to be the crash of the bomber which was starting out fully loaded with bombs on a dawn patrol, it being a plane of the 1st Anti-submarine · squadron. The field was located within a few miles. Six of the crew of ten were killed instantly. They were not of my unit as I was then with the tanks, but I was the nearest chaplain. I was unaware that Dale was a Beta or Dickinsonian." (GILBERT

The Leading . Authority On Cancer

Dr. Francis Carter Wood, Ohio State '91, the country's leading cancer specialist, was recently tendered a tea at St. Luke's hospital, New York, in recognition of 50 years of continuous service as a member of its staff . A portrait, painted by Leonibel Jacobs at the direction of the hospital board of managers, was unveiled and will hang permanently in the hospital. Dr. Wood has undoubtedly done more to advance the knowledge of the medical profession in the subject of cancer than any other physician.

Dr. Wood received his baccalaurea· e degree at Ohio State, and took Phi Beta Kappa honors. He ,then took the degree of M.D . from the College of Physici a ns and Surgeons at Columbia in 189 4 , interned at St. Luke's, and studied in Berlin and Vienna in 1896.

In 1897 he was made pathologist of St. Luke's and has occupied that position ever since. He was an attending physician from 1909 to 1938, since which time he has been consulting physician. He has also been director of the pathological laboratory since 1910; director of the radiotherapeutic department since 1921.

His teaching connection with Columbia began in 1896, when he was made assistant in clinical pathology. Two years later he became instructor, and from 1904-06 was adjunct professor of pathology. Then the doctor was made professor and director of the department of clinical pathology, a position which he held for six years, when he was promoted to become professor and director of the Institute of Cancer Research, founded by George Crocker, of Columbia.

He occupied that position until 1940 and is now emeritus

The team was separated in January, 1942 when Chip, rejected as an "overage destroyer" by American recruiting officesArmy, Navy and Marines-took his record nine years in Chicago's Black Horse Troop across to Canada and enlisted in the Duke

of York's Royal Canadian Hussars. He trained· as a trooper at Huntington, Que., then Borden, Ont., and Camp Dundurn, Sask., won his commis.sion and later was promoted to first 'lieutenant.

Lieutenant Chip spent most of his time in Saskatchewan training men for the armored reconnaissance corps. Following another period of training at the Royal Military College, Brockville, Ont., he was appointed intelligence service officer at Camp Dundurn.

Refused for overseas duty because of his "ripe age," Chip-having even tried for a reduction to the ranks in order to serve abroad-applied for discharge in 1944 and became a civilian again in November. Upon entering the service he had taken the oath

LEADERS IN MISSOURI

Stratford Lee Morton, Washington (St. Louis) '10, (standing) chats with Guy B. Park, Missouri '96, former governor of Missou ri, at the State Constitution al convention.

Betas were instrumental in promoting this progre ss ive step. Stratford Lee Morton, Washington (St L ouis) '10, was the chairman of the St. Louis and St. Louis County committee, and treasurer of the State-wide committee that was responsible for calling the Constitutional convention. This followed a conference in St. Louis in 19 4 1 of the National Municipal league of which Morton was St. Louis chairman, and out of this grew the organization responsible for the convention.

Morton served as a delegate-at-large to the convention , while Guy B. Park , Missouri '96, former governor of Missouri, was delegate from the Third senatorial district. The new

constitution was adoptel by a vote of about two to one, and takes the place of the constitution Missouri has had since 1875.

Political commentators gave Morton credit for doing more than any one man in the convention to make the new constitution a progressive one, and former Governor Park was frank to state, "I know of no man who was more effective in bringing about the good things contained in the new constitution than Stratford Lee Morton." ·

Both Park and Morton have long been loyal members of Beta Theta Pi, the latter ' being a member of the Advisory Council of Former Trustees.

I News of the Chicago Betas

A well attended meeting of the directors of Alpha Alumni chapter was held at the Orrington hotel in Evanston, Ill. on March 1, 1945.

Wendell Walker, Chicago '19, member of the board of directors, has just completed a most sutcessful campaign to enlist sponsors for and contributors to a plan for entertaining Betas in the armed services when traveling through Chicago or home on furlough in this area. All such Betas are to be the guests of the alumni at our regular luncheons, each Thursday at Hotel Sherman in Chicago. Our goal was to interest 150 Betas and secure $750, to make possible the immediate inauguration of the plan. So hearty was the response that we have the promise of 180 Betas here in the Chicago area that will attend at least one luncheon each and every month to meet and greet the visiting Betas in uniform, and this same 180 loyal and interested alumni have contributed over $1,000 to finance the hospitality.

Once a month a bulletin will be issued to all Betas in the Chicago area keeping them in touch with this and the other activities of the Alpha Alumni chapter of Beta Theta Pi. It will be called The Dorg and is to be edited by John A. Churchman, Purdue '28. First issue was off the press April 4. The assistant editor is Wendell Walker, Chicago '19. The first issue presented by these two consisted of an attractively mimeographed paper of four pages, and was sent to all Betas in the Chicago area. It carried a long list of those who had cooperated in making possible the Beta Servicemen's plan.

LET's ALL EvoKE THE FACIAL RIPPLE-XII

About this time last year, General Secretary G. Herbert Smith, DePaiiW ' 27, was guest of honor on the campus of the University of Southern California, in Los Angeles. While there he was awarded the Degree of Doctor of Laws at the Commencement ceremonies.

Returning to Salem on the train, however, he discovered how misunderstood an LL.D. degree may be at times. After the train had left Los Angeles, he received a wire in care of the conductor addressed to " Doctor G. Herbert Smith." Two hours later the conductor rushed into the car and asked if he were the doctor who had received the wire. When Willamette's young president admitted as much, the conductor informed him that there was a very sick man two cars in the rear, and hoped that he would come back and look at him. Whereupon the embarrassed "Prexy" explained, as best he could, that he " wasn't that kind of a doctor!"

Basketball Stars of 1945

Peter N. Hugger, Rutgers '48, crack center on one of the finest teams the Scarlet has had for many years, led his club in scoring with a total of 200 points in 14

Lehigh, 16 points vs. Drexel, 15 points vs. Drexel, 14 points vs Lehigh, 14 points vs. Haverford, 13 points vs. Lafayette, 13 points vs. Raritan Arsenal, 12 points vs. Lehigh, 10 points vs. Princeton , 8 points vs. Haverford, 6 points vs. Lafayette.

John Carroll, Annapolis (Dartmouth '46), was a fine forward on a team that won 11 games and lost only 2, ranking as one of the best in Eastern circles. The former D artmouth freshman captain tallied 15 points against a very strong Bainbridge Naval quintet; 14 against Penn State; 14 against Pentathlon Military; 12 against West Point; 12 against West Virginia; 10 against Villanova, Muhlenberg and North Carolina Pre-Flight and 9 against Columbia.

Co-Captain William Rankin, U.C.L.A. '45, all-Pacific Coast Southern Division guard in 1944, piloted his team to a Pacific Coast title, playing brilliantly at both forward and guard positions. His sensational work enabled the Bruins to whip a strong Southern California team, 34 to 28, Rankin tossing in 14 points and playing a beautiful game on defense. He ranked as one of the finest players in the country.

FRESHMAN CENTER AT RUTGERS

games. He was not only a brilliant offensive player but also an important factor on the defense, controlling the ball off both backboards consistently. Hugger's fine scoring record during the 1945 basketball season can be summed up as follows:

23 points vs. Rutgers Army Unit, 20 points vs Le· htgh, 19 potnts vs Rutgers Aimy Unit, 17 points vs.

Robert L. Rennick, Washington State ' 45, veteran baseball and basketball performer, was one of the leading players on a team that tied for the Pacific Coast Northern Division championship, losing out in the final play-offs with Oregon. Despite the fact that he measures only 5 ft. 6--rather small indeed for a guard these days-Rennick's speed and clever ball handling made him a dangerous opponent. In the first game of the play-off with Oregon, "Bob" shot 5

baskets from the floor and did a splendid job on the defense against one of the highest scoring forwards in the country.

Pledge David Howard, Utah '48, an exMarine who served at Tarawa, was one of the stars on another great Utah team that captured the Big Seven Conference title again with 8 consecutive victories and no defeats. Howard scored 53 goals and 35 fouls in 18 contests for a total of 147 points, tossing in 16 against St. Josephs, 16 against Montana State and 13 against Canisius . His great floor work, fine passing and excellent defensive work earned him a place on the Big Seven honor roll for 1945.

Of the 972 points registered by Ohio University last winter, 404 were made by members of our Beta chapter. James P. Mackey, '45, accounted for 215; John M . Maldovan, '45, tossed in 153; Walter Maroney, '47, tallied 19; Edward A Turner, '48, scored 12 and Harry H. Lamb, '48, contributed 5. Another freshman, Donald B. Poling, '48, played occasionally at one of the guard positions. Ohio's seasonal record of 11 wiris and 8 losses does not reveal the real calibre of Coach Harold E. Wise, a former Beta athlete who has been doing a splendid job at his alma mater. Ohio played some of the finest teams in the country and furnished plenty of real competition for such outstanding teams as Kentucky, Tennessee, Bowling Green, Akron, Miami and Denison. Mackey, a regular guard for the past two years, was shifted to center where he performed splendidly, scoring 30 points against Muskingum; 16 against Otterbein; 16 against Tannan; 13 against Denison; 13 against Bowling Green; 12 against Miami; 12 against Ohio Wesleyan; 11 against Muskingum and 10 points apiece against Akron, Miami, Cincinnati and Ohio Wesleyan

Maldovan, who hurled for the strong Newark club of the International League last summer, was permitted to participate in intercollegiate athletics last winter and immediately took over his old position at forward where he again starred, scoring 19 points against Ohio Wesleyan; 14 against Akron; 14 against Lockloune; 13 against Ohio Wes-

leyan ; 11 against Cincinnati and 10 points against both Muskingum and Cincinnati. Maldovan won 10 games and lost 8 for the Newark Bears, leading his club in strikeouts and finishing second in the league in that department. He is the property of the New York Yankees and if all goes well, should be pitching big league ball in the very near future .

Robert W. Lewis, Utah '47, and his twin brother, Frederic B. Lewis, Ut ah ' 47, members of the 1944 National Intercollegiate champions, played for an Army camp team last winter but unfortunately we failed to see any box scores of the games in which

they played. "Bob" Lewis was a fine guard for the great Utah club that defeated Dartmouth at the I.C.A .A. finals .a year ago.

Paul C. Armstrong, Indiana '41, who played sensationally for the strong Great Lakes Naval Station team one year ago, was one of the outstanding stars on the powerful Bainbridge team of the past winter and although his complete record for the seasqn failed to arrive in time to be included in

this issue, his work in the games which came to our attention seemed to be of the same high calibre as in the past.

Without attempting to select an all-Beta team this year, since we feel that our records tn this sport are not entirely complete, we

GREAT LAKES ATHLETIC DIRECTOR

Lt. Com9r. Rolland F. Williams, W isconsin '22, one of Beta's greatest athletes, recently became athletic director at Great Lakes Naval Training center after many months of overseas duty in the Pacific. Born in Edgerton, Wisconsin in 1897, "Rollie" entered the University of Wisconsin in 1917 but after one semester enlisted in the Navy during World War I. Oddly enough, he spent most of his time at Great Lakes.

Returning to college a year or so later, he proceeded to win 9 varsity letters, winning all-Conference honors as a guard in basketball and all-Conference rating as a halfback on a fine Badger football eleven. For three years he held down a regular berth in the outfield for Wisconsin's strong baseball teams. Very fast, smart and elusive, "Rollie" was one of the finest halfbacks Wisconsin has ever had and he still is ranked as perhaps the greatest basketball guard in Badger history.

After one season at James Millikin University, where he coached the football and basketball teams, "Rollie" went to the University of Iowa as an assistant in both sports, becoming head coach of basketball in 1929. His teams have shown steady improvement, the 1942 quintet finishing in a tie for 2nd place in the Big Ten Conference race.

Yi\LE's LAcRossE CoAcH

Reginald D. Root, Yale '26, former headcoach of football and lacrosse at his alma mater but more recently director of athletics and football mentor at New Haven high school, returned to Yale this spring as head coach of lacrosse and assistant coach

might say that a club composed of Armstrong, Carroll, Maldovan and Howard at forward, Hugger and Mackey at center and Rankin, Rennick and the Lewis twins at guard would be capable of extending any team in the country last winter of football under "Howie" Odell. Root played both games for 3 years at Yale and served as head coach of the gridiron sport in 1933, returning to his freshman assignment the following year and remaining there until 1942. A graduate of Yale law school, Root coached varsity lacrosse from 1927 through 1932 and again from 1934 through 1942.

THE YANKEES' NEW OWNER

Col. L. S. ("Larry") MacPhail, Beloit '10, Michigan '10, former head of the Brooklyn Dodgers and more recently on duty in the o!fice of Under Secretary of War Robert Patterson, recently became involved in one of the greatest business deals in athletic history when he and two wealthy associates purchased the New York Yankees, the world's richest baseball club, for a reported price of $2,500,000 The club, which was once the pride of the "Jake" Rupert, was originally rated at a value of $4,000,000. The sensational deal includes all real estate, the Yankee stadium in New York and plants in Newark and Kansas City as well as the farm clubs at Norfolk and Binghampton. Some 350 players are also included in the transfer, all except 150 of whom are now in the armed services of our country.

The sale may also put the Yankees into professional football, since Dan Topping, one of the new owners, controls the Brooklyn Tigers who will be homeless shortly after the 1945 season is over. It's quite possible, therefore, that the Tigers will play their home games in the Yankee stadium.

MacPhail was placed on the Army's inactive list early in February. He formerly was connected with the Cincinnati and

Brooklyn teams of the National League and although his extremely progressive and unusual ideas met with considerable opposition from the more conservative managers and owners, there is no question about the financial results which he obtained for both teams. Sports writers are already predicting that the fiery and energetic "Larry" will make the Yankees the greatest drawing card in big league baseball, and incidentally, a very profitable investment for the new owners.

BRILLIANT BETA WRESTLER

Malcolm W. MacDonald, Annapolis (Purdue '44), recently won his third consecutive Eastern I.C.A.A. 121 lb. wrestling championship. In nine years of competition

121 lb. crown in 1942, the Eastern I.C.A.A. championship in 1943, 1944 and 1945 and the National A.A.U. title in 1944. A year ago he tossed 11 of the 12 grapplers who opposed him and was voted the "outstanding wrestler" in both A.A.U : and intercoJlegiate circles . His brilliant record for the past season is listed briefly below:

Decision ( 12·4) over Hetherton of Pennsylvania ( 128 lb. class) .

Decision ( 10·3) over Somers of Muhlenberg.

Threw Schreiber of Columbia in 1:17

Threw Schultz of Penn State in seconds.

Threw Issca of North Carolina in 42 seconds.

Threw Hall of Princeton in 1:55 (I.C.A.A. first round )

Threw Siberman of Cornell in 2:42 (I.C.A.A. semi-finals).

Threw Changaris of Coast Guard in 3 : 30 ( I.C.A.A. finals).

CHAMPION FOR THIRD TIME

Malcolm W MacDonald, Annapolis (Purdue '44), winner of I.C.A.A championship for third cons ecutive year.

this remarkable little grappler has suffered only one defeat and in three years at Annapolis he has thrown almost every opponent he has met. "Mickey" won the Missouri Valley 115 lb. title in his freshman year at Purdue, captured the Big Ten Conference

Theodore H. Niewenhous, Lehigh '46, had another fine season on the mat. An injured knee, which kept him out of three meets, was perhaps the only thing that prevented him from winning the Eastern I.C.A.A. 155 lb. title. "Ted" won all 4 dual meet matches, tossing Sager of Swarthmore (2 :03) and Schmock of Muhlenberg (30 seconds) and winning decisions over Peters of Princeton and Schmock of Muhlenberg. At the I.C.A.A. meet, Niewenhous defeated Popick of Cornell, 8-2, in the first round and Fee of West Point, 7-4, in the semi-finals before losing a close 4-2 decision to Smith of Penn State in the finals . In this match, which incidentally was the only defeat which he suffered during the entire season, "Ted" injured his knee and was forced to default in the subsequent bout for second place, automatically winning third place honors. A year ago he placed second in the same division.

One of the outstanding wrestlers of the past season was Cadet Robert A. Land, West Point (Colorado Mines '46), who piled up a record almost equal to that of our great Beta grappler at Annapolis, the incomparable "Mickey" MacDonald. The brilliant .Army lad registered falls against seven of the eight opponents whom he encountered, tossing Spaeth of Yale; Scanlon of Columbia ( 1 :44) ; Bartoo of the Coast Guard ; Gerhart

of Muhlenberg; and Gerb of Lehigh (58 seconds), all in dual matches. At the I.C.A.A. meet, Land decisioned Brimm of Annapolis 8-3; tossed Bartoo in 1:26; and pinned Boyle of Pennsylvania in 5:21 in the final round.

Land, who stands 6 feet and weighs 185 pounds, began his career at East High, Denver, where he was all-city end in 1941 and won his letter in track as a discus thrower. At Colorado Mines, wkere varsity sports are more or less curtailed at present, "Bob" was prominent in various branches of intramural athletics. At West Point last fall, he was a first string substitute guard on Earl Blaik's mighty eleven, unquestionably the greatest team in America during the 1944 season. He developed rapidly after mid-season was expected to wi.n a starting berth this fall; however, an old high school injury which bothered him again will make further participation on the gridiron impossible.

"EDDIE" EAGAN OF YALE

' Edward Patrick Francis Eagan, Denver '20, was recently appointed chairman of the New York State Athletic commission by Governor Dewey, succeeding John J. Phelan who held that important post for 13 years. The former Olympic and A.E .F. boxing champion, for years a successful llttorney, was until a few months ago a lieutenant colonel in the Air Forces. He will receive a yearly salary of $7,500 in his new position as "czar" of New York boxing but many of his friends believe that the 46 year old lawyer may use the job as a political springjust as "Jim" Farley did several years ago.

Eagan's career is most colorful and interesting, for it is the story of a poor Colorado boy who rose to wealth and social prominence by way of amateur boxing. His father, a Denver railroad man, died shortly after "Eddie" was born and his mother moved with her five young children to Longm ont, Colorado where young Eagan, struggling to help the family and at the same time acquire an education, became interested in boxing while attending high school. He spent one

year at Denver University where he joined Beta Theta Pi and where he won the Western Amateur middleweight title.

Then came the first World War where he distinguished himself as a first lieutenant, winning the post-armistice tournament at Paris in the middleweight division while his chum, quite unknown at the time but later the heavyweight champion of the world, Gene Tunney, won the light-heavyweight title of the A.E.F. Returning to America, Eagan enrolled at Yale, won the national A .A.U. heavyweight title at Boston in 1920 and then captured the Olympic light-heavy crown at Antwerp a few months later.

Upon finishing his course at YalB, he spent one year at Harvard Law before win. ·ning a Rhodes scholarship at Oxford. While in England, he won the British amateur heavy-weight title and in 1925 he embarked on a world exhibition tour with several British gentlemen boxers.

In 1926, "Eddie" helped to prepare his old friend Tunney for his second Dempsey fight in Chicago. He . then dabbled in real estate and began the practice of law, marrying Margaret Colgate, member of the famous Colgate soap family, in 1927. They have a son 15 years old and a daughter of 13. In 1932 Eagan again made the headlil}es as a member of the 4 man bobsled team that won the Olympic title at' Lake Placid, N.Y., thereby becoming the only man in history ever to be an Olympic champion in two different sports. ·

For five years he served as assistant U S district attorney for southern New York, then retired to private practice which he gave up to enter the Air Force. For almost three years as chief of special service for Air Transport Command he has been busily engaged, visiting almost every part of the world where United States bases are located.

"The Cinderella Kid," as one New York writer has called him, frankly admits that it was his prowess with the padded gloves which provided him with the opportUnity to rise in life. During his early days, although he never fought for money, he boxed such greats as Jack Dempsey, Gene Tunney,

Tommy Gibbons and Tom Heeney and there are many who still believe that he could have been world's heavyweight champion, had he so desired Now 46 years old and tipping the scales at 193 lbs., Eagan, who once wrote a book Fighting for Fun, lives in a handsome mansion at Rye, N.Y.

A PRoMisiNG FRESHMAN SwiMMER

William . Heusner, Northwestern· '48, recently completed a fine season by placing 2nd in the 44 0 and 1500 meter events at the National I.C.A.A. swimming meet after having placed 3rd in both the 220 and 4 4 0 yd. races at the Big Ten Conference two weeks previous. The promtsmg Northwestern freshman won first place in the 440 in every dual meet and also captured first place in the 220 against all his opponents except against Wisconsin He was the high point scorer on the Wildcat squad and has an official clocking of 2 : 20 flat for the furlong and 5 :07'% 0 for the quarter. If Heusner is able to remain in college for three more years he may prove to be a worthy successor to such prominent swimmers of Rho chapter as Henry Kozlowski, Arthur Highland, Donald Horn, aqd Lyml. Surles, all of whom performed in brilliant fashion for the Purple in other years. Kozlowski still holds the world's record of 22.1 seconds for the 50 yd. freestyle, Highland was a National A.A.U. 100 yd. champion and a member of the 1936 Olympic team and Horn established a new National I.C.A.A. record in winning the 200 yd. breast stroke in 1933.

ATHLETIC NOTES

The Rutgers chapter, always noted for its fine athletic representation, is living up to its traditional reputation in spite of the tremendous difficulties caused by war time conditions. On the gridiron last fall, the chapter had 7 letter winners, 3 of whom held down starting positions. Peter N Hugger, '48, stellar end, Charles Dezer, '48, quarterback, and Pledge John Griffin, '48, left tackle, were stalwarts on the Scarlet's varsity eleven while Richard Rumney ; '4 8, Arthur

Price, '45 , and William Davy, '4 8, substitute backs, saw plenty of service in every contest. Richard Frothingham, '46, alternated at the pivot position, starting o'ne or two games late in the fall.

Hugger, a Jour-letter man in his high school days, won distinction when he scored touchdowns by catching passes in several contests. His defensive play was excellent.a s we may judge by the fact that although a powerful Lafayette eleven trounced Rutgers quite decisively, the speedy Lafayette backs were able to gain only three yards around his end on that occasion.

Spring baseball practice finds four Rutgers Betas striving for regular berths : Arthur Price at first base; Robert Burrowes, '46, at third base; Richard Frothingham and Walter H. Gardner, '45, in the outfield.

William H. Lund, Case '46, star football player and 1944 Senior National A.A U broad jump champion, won first place in his favorite event at the Michigan Indoor Relays with a leap of 22 ft. 7 inches. Late in March he lost first place medal by the slender margin of one inch at the Cleveland K. of C. meet, turning in the finest performance of his career with a jump that measured 24 ft . 5 inches , by far the best performance credited to a college athlete during the past indoor season. On March 24 he placed 2nd in the 60 yard dash at the Purdue Relays

Richard E Forrestel, Michigan '46, finished second in the 440 yd . run at the Big Ten Conference track meet one week after placing second to Kelly of Illinois, the Conchampion, in a dual meet. In a triangular affair with Great Lakes and Western Michigan he won the 440 in 51.3 seconds and anchored the winning one mile relay team. Early in the winter Forrestel placed 3rd in a fast field of 600 yd. runners at the Mill rose A. C. games and on March 17 he again won 3rd place in the same event at the annual Chicago Relays. One week later he ran on the winning University distance medley relay quartet-time 10:22% 0 seconds.

Rutgers Leads in Activities

Present officers of Beta Gamma's chapter of 12 members are Arthur Price, president; Richard Frothingham, vice president; Walter Gardner, secretary; Robert Burrowes, treasurer; and John Boehm, recorder. The following were initiated in late December, 1944, and early January, 1945: Charles Dezer, Englewood, N.J. (now in Marine Corps); James Alexander, Brooklyn, N.Y.; John Boehm, Teaneck, N J ; Thomas Butler, Rutherford, N.J.; William Davey, North Arlington, N.J ; Walter Gardner, Passaic, N.J.; Bernard Gillespie, Glen Ridge, N.J.; John Holt, North Arlington, N.J. (now in the U. S, Army); Peter Hugger, Rahway, N.J.; Sergio Kroeff, Rio de Janiero, Brazil; Alfred Neuschaefer, Trenton, N.J.; Alan Nobel, Englewood, N.J (now in A.A.C.); Faudell Kuh, New York, N.Y.; and Robert Perkins, Red Bank, N.J. (now in the Navy).

· Richard Rumney, who was recorder of the chapter is now in the Air Corps.

At the opening of the spring quarter in April, we had nine members on hand. Three of. these men, Alexander, Price, and Gardner, are war veterans, and we expect that returning veterans will form the nucleus of the chapter for some time to come.

The chapter was delighted when Dr. W. Russell Greenwood, '38, director of student health, associate professor of physiology, and unit surgeon for the Army Specialized Training Program at Rutgers, returned to the campus on September 15, 1944. During a year's service in the Navy, Dr. Greenwood was at sea for four months and saw action in the Sicilian invasion at Gela. He

has now resumed his old duties as alumni counselor of Beta Gamma and has undertaken the new ones of chief of District V. Beta Gamma has resumed its traditional position on the Rutgers campus. Burrowes, who has just resigned from the presidency of the Interfraternity council after serving two terms, is now a member of the five-man Student council, and Price is likewise a Qlember of the same committee. Both have recently received the honor of inclusion of Who's Who in American Colleges and Universities. Upon the reorganization of our campus newspaper, Boehm and Gardner became contributors.

In sports, Beta Gamma is also at the fore. Last summer the chapter organized a softball team which was undefeated in the intramural league until the final playoff. Our luck was better in intramural touch football, for after a hard fight we were successful in winning the championship. The Beta basketball team was third in the intramural competition, and Price was the leading scorer of the league. Dezer, Price, Frothingham, Hugger, and John Griffin (pledge, now preparing for his examination for admission to Annapolis) played on the first string varsity football team, Davey and Rumney on the second team. All won their letters. Hugger also played varsity basketball and was the leading scorer with 200 points in 14 games. Neuschaefer and Kroeff were varsity members of the swimming team, while Kuh was a sprinter on the varsity track team.

In October, 1943, Burrowes and Ripley Watson, Jr. led the return of Beta Gamma

to the chapter house at 50 Union St., New Brunswick, N.J. We found its interior sadly in need of a coat of paint. More than a year later the job was undertaken and completed under the expert direction of Price.

The chapter and whole campus were saddened by the death of Pledge Robin Shaw, on December 17, 1944. One of the most popular men at Rutgers, Robin was to have been initiated at the end of December.

Vanderbilt Has "House-Warming"

Beta Lambda is thriving in spite of wartime handicaps, with a present membership of 28. Initiates of the past six months include Paul Ray, Jr., Guy Henley, Jr., James Hunter, William McCain, Benjamin Strong, Robert Williamson, Carr Payne, Jr., Waddy Oursler, Jr., Robert Kerr, Charles Hunt, Jr., Walter Scott, Jr., Louis Close, William Wadlington, Albert Archie, Jr., Richard Todd, Robert Hardeman, James Walker, and Barrett Sutton.

We are now back in our chapter house, which the university had rented as a freshman dining room for eighteen months. Although the chapter rented another house during that period, it was not as satisfactory and we were very willing to move back . In fact, a hilarious house-warming was given to celebrate the occasion.

Social activities have been numerous and enjoyable. A formal banquet was given last term, with Dean Robert C. Provine, Vanderbilt '23, as speaker. An alumni dinner was held in the fall, and Tyler Calhoun, Vanderbilt '88, was the guest of honor. The Miami

Triad formal wa;'S a success, and future plans include a house party, the a;nual "Bowery Ball," a rush party, and another dinner for the alumni. A weekly social column in the Nashville Tennesseean had this to say about the chapter:

We're so proud of the Betas for reviving an · old Vandy tradition-they spent last Sunday afternoon serenading all the sororities on the campus. H ere's hoping the other fraternities will follow suit-latest reports say the girls loved it!

As to athletics the Betas are as much on top as usual. Of the 30 men on the Vanderbilt "V-model" football team, nine were Betas. There were also five Betas on the varsity basketball team, and we have been active in intramural sports as well.

The Betas are well represented in all extra-curricular activities and honorary organizations. The chapter has a majority on the Men's Honor council and the Student Christian Association cabinet, and members in all the various scholastic and social groups.

Beta Lambda won the only award in interfraternity competition last term-that for house decoration on "Homecoming Day."

Alpha Iota Sells the Most War Bonds

Alpha Iota chapter has continued to progress the past three war-years even though we have lost over 100 undergraduates to the armed forces. An example of our tremendous turnover is last October's pledge class. From its original ten members it has been reduced to three by virtue of inductions. We finally, however, have built up a nucleus of men who will not be subject to further service in the armed forces. It is this group which is ·making elaborate preparations for accom-

modating the large chapter we expect upon the cessation of hostilities.

At present our chapter includes 18 members and ten pledges. The pledges are: Robert Phole, Fred Rebsemann, Kenneth Steiner, Richard Gabbert, William Lake, William Rals, Alfred Theis, George Murray,· Ralph Copp, and Brent Parker.

· The Loving Cup ceremony was revived after a year's lapse. At this ceremony, we announced the winner of the Van Ornum

Award, given in honor of the late John L. Van Ornum, Wisconsin ' 88, professor of. engineering at Washington University. Edward Murphy was the recipient of the Van Ornum badge, as being the outstanding Beta during the past year.

Alpha Iota did not fare too well in sports. In the basketball tourney we lost to the medical students and dental school students but won all our games played with rival fraternities. We have three men on the varsity baseball team: James Schulenberg, Alfred Theis, and Ralph Copp. In a snowball fight with the fraternity occupying the adjacent house we came out overwhelmingly on top ; it wl).S waged in six inches of snow. James Clark, '47, firing in rifle competition on the R .O .T.C. team, shot 96 out of a possible 100 from the sitting position

Three of our men were elected to " Thurtene," junior men's honorary: Robert Covington, '46, Edward Murphy, '46, and Fred Sudekum, '46. "Thurtene" is composed of the 13 outstanding junior men in the entire school who are elected by the 13 men chosen from the previous year's class

We have adopted a plan which should be

of interest and of real benefit to other Beta chapters. Each Alpha Iota pledge is required to enter one major, extra-curricular activity on campus. These men do not play prominent parts as yet , but in two or three semesters from now ,. we expect to have at least one key man in every activity. Of especial interest to our members in service is the item that through this plan we now have a man on the school newspaper, Student-Life, who will do justice to our press releases and see that our victories are given sufficient -space. Sherwood Kettler leads the chapter by participating in six activities and Edward Murphy is second , being in four activities.

James Ernst, Colorado '46, Westminster '46, and now of our chapter, was elected to the office . of vice president, succeeding Fred Sudekum, who entered the law school. Other officers are Sherwood Kettler, president; Edward Murphy, treasurer ; Robert Covington, recorder; and George Richardson, secretary.

Our chapter led all other fraternities in a \ recent war bond drive on campus We sold $56,000 worth of war bonds.

Alpha Eta's "Fire

Typical of the pinch that is being felt in all present wartime chapters , Alpha Eta at Denison proved that even without ration books and blue points they could have a banquet. This was no ordinary banquet, as it was held on the anniversary of the fire that swept through the old Beta house back in 1903. Ever since then Alpha Eta has commemorated the event with a banquet. It has become tradition that every January 16 all the telegrams and letters written about the fire be taken out of the archives and read ayd the story of the fire be told.

/ This unfortunate occurrence of 42 years ago-just as the war is doing today-put the chapter out in more than one way; but somehow they all found living quarters, and chapter life continued without any mixup.

Today the chapter is located in two rooms above a store in downtown Granville, Ohio -the very rooms in which our chapter founders met in 1868 to form the Alpha Eta of Beta Theta Pi. With t>ink and blue hair ribbons and lace curtains replacing our colors in the uphill house, the chapter could not have moved to a better location as far as Beta lore is concerned.

In these there is one small sink that does not drain very fast, two gas heaters that sometimes work, and one dilapidated and outmoded stove Cooking there was an impossibility. The banquet meal , therefore, had to be ordered from the local inn Coffee and coffee cups came from a nearby restaurant. Table linen came from the college dining hall. Silverware had to be procured from the

Phi Gamma Delta house, also a womah's dormitory and dining hall now. The food had to be carried from the inn to the chapter rooms. Everything was borrowed. With the V-12 members and pledges standing muster at 6:30, all the table setting and incidentals had to be done in a half hour for the feast.

Dr. Russell H. ("Rock") Williams, '15, led the pre-banquet march with a lusty tenor rendition of "We're Coming From the East, Boys; We're coming from the West", and after the Beta Doxology, 21 hungry alumni, undergraduates and pledges sat down to a hot-spaghetti-and-cold-cuts dinner. The menus included pickles-and butter, too.

This wasn't just an ordinary banquet as in years before. It was proof that despite difficulties brought about by changes in campus life, the Betas could still hold to Beta tradition even if it meant going to a lot of extra work.

Not only in the case of maintaining the tradition of the Fire Banquet, but in other respects Alpha Eta is carrying on. The initia-

tion of five new members January 21 , in the chapter house, brought the active membership of the Denison chapter to 17, nine of whom are Navy trainees. The five initiates are: Ben Wilson, Dover, Ohio; Richard Clark, Lancaster, Ohio ; Alban W. Coen, II, Western Springs, Ill.; William Miller, Dayton, Ohio; and Fred Klein, Middleport, Ohio.

In a recent election, the following chapter officers were elected: Thomas A. Schulkins , president; Jackson P Burke, vice president; Robert D. Moore, secretary; Richard R. Weber, treasurer; and Fred Klein , house manager. Schulkins received the additional honor of be ing elected president of the Interfraternity council, succeeding Charles F. Wright, who also retired as chapter president

Alpha Eta has been very active in both the sports and social fields during the winter season. In winning the Interfraternity basketball championship, Alpha Eta established the excellent record of three successive seasons without a defeat.

Phi Alpha Is Marching Along

The Spring term at Davidson finds Phi Alpha more active than ever on the campus. The chapter has for over a year been the largest of the seven fraternities which are operating. One-sixth of the present student body are either members or pledges and it is interesting to note that if such a r,atio were true in a pre-war or post-war year, the chapter would number over one hundred men. The quality in our present quantity is evident in the varied activities and high standing, scholastically and otherwise, of both members and pledges.

On February 15, 1945, six men were admitted to the light, the following being initiated: William Gordon, Kingstree, S.C. ; John Sherrill , Cornelius, N .C. ; Frank Larew, Mocksville, -N.C. ; Joseph Mclean, Lenoir, N.C. (son of A. A. Mclean, '06); Marshall Woodson, Davidson, N.C.; ,a nd Raymond Womeldorf, Winston -Salem, N.C. Sherrill

received the Bob Ramsey Memorial cup as the most worthy pledge and Gordon received the chapter ' s Freshman scholarship cup

Mid-year rushing gave Phi Alpha seven pledges, two sophomores and five freshmen; William Pollard, Farmville, N.C.; William Simpson, Huntersville, N.C. ; James Pittman , Orlando, Fla . ; Springer Hoskins, Harlan , Ky .; David Farr, Charlotte , N.C.; Joseph McLaney, Charlotte, N.C.; and Linwood O'Briant, Durham, N.C.

In campus life, Newton Spencer and George Gunn continue to serve on the Y.M.C.A. cabinet and in student government elections Beta held her own: Roderick Macdonald was elected Junior class representa - · tive to replace Spencer when the latter moved up to the Senior class and then Alfred Scarborough was elected to replace Gunn as the Sophomore class when Gunn moved into the Junior class.

On the staff of The Davidsonian, campus publication, Ralph Smith and Gunn are managing editors this term and Ellis White is assistant business manager and staff photographer. "Newt" Spencer is circulation manager. Thomas Smith was elected editorin-chief of Quips and Cranks, cbllege annual, to succeed the first editor, who graduated before work on the yearbook began. Betas assisting Smith are White and Gunn as photography editors, with John Sherrill and William Pollard members of the editorial staff. Macdonald is an assistant business manager and Harry Mclean and Frank Larew are on the business staff.

The college glee club's trio is made up of Betas Harry McLean, Marshall Carper, and Ralph Smith, who did their first harmonizing on some of the good old Beta songs.

Members of the chapter have shown up well in the field of athletics. "Alf" Scarborough, Jack Etheridge and Linwood O'Briant became members of the Varsity "D" club, having made letters in basketball. Robert Brooks, who lettered in baseball last year, is now vice president of this club. Eight of the sixteen-man basketball squad were Betas: Scarborough, Etheridge, O'Briant, John Sherrill, Ward Lasley, Joseph Mclean, Ralph Smith, and William Simpson. Phi Alpha's intramural basketball team won the cochampionship and Gordon was picked as center on the all -intramural team.

The chapter was present in force at the Panhellenic sponsored "Midwinters" on February 9 and 10, which were . Davidson's first campus dances in her 109-year history; previously all dances had been held in Charlotte. A Beta-S.P.E. formal was planned for April 6, and the Panbellenic "Spring Frolics" dances were held on the campus on April 13 and 14.

On Sunday, February 11, Phi Alpha provided flowers for the college Vespers in memory of her six gold stars of World War II : Col. Wm. Courtney Mills, '28; SjSgt. Geo. T. Tipton, '36; Lt. Robt. B. Benfield, '39; Capt. Oscar L. Joyner, Jr., '40; Major W. Holt Barnwell, '41; and Pvt. Wm. M. Shaw, Jr., '42. Since then word has been received that Lt. Crawford Wheeler, '44, is missing and that Pvt. Walter S. Covington, '46, has been killed in action, both in Germany.

We are sorry that R. L. ("Abe") Lincoln, Davidson '27, Virginia '31, has been forced to give up the responsibility as chief of District VIII ; he has been a most loyal alumni in the service of this chapter and of Beta Theta Pi as a whole. We were happy to welcome George R. Browner, Centre '29, when he visited the chapter on March 22 as our new district chief.

We of Phi Alpha are marching along in Beta Theta Pi-"strong in the might of our bond fraternal."

BRITISH COLUMBIA

Gamma Omicron held its annual election on March 13, 1945, and the following were chosen as the new executives: Robert Shewan president; David Hazelwood, vice president; Leslie Canty, secretary; Robin Farr, recorder; Edward Chambers, treasurer; and Kenneth Wate, sergeant-at-arms. Shewan and Wate have both returned from service with the R .C.A.F ., and are members from some years back

Chapter activities have practically come to a standstill now, as the old ogre, "Sessional Exams," is looking hungrily at his victims.

However, we gave our mothers an "At Home" Sunday afternoon , March 25, in tribute to them for all the work they have so graciously done for the chapter. (J. L. CANTY, Secretary)

COLUMBIA

Today Alpha Alpha is an active force on Columbia ' s wartime campus with 32 members, including five in the Navy V-12 unit. The last initiation for the chapter was held on January 28, 1945. The class of eight initiates were: Robert E. Brown, William Santoro, John Benkovich , Leon Morrano,

Fred Morrison, Robert Weis, Richard Perkins, and Lon Sanders.

During the recent Columbia ,Alumni Day celebration, Alpha Alpha held its annual gettogether with its alumni. After the formal meeting during which the financial affairs of the chapter were discussed and plans laid for the renovation of the house, the group adjourned to the social room for an informal session.

Here at Columbia, the Interfraternity council, which has been dormant since the outbreak of the war , has been revived by the dean of Columbia College to assume the leadership and direction of the Columbia's fraternities once again. Plans have been started for an Interfraternity newspaper and the holding of social affairs . Our chapter president, Charles Fabso, rep,resents Beta on the council.

Our Mothers' club has been particularly active this year. Their most recent affair was a " Parents Night" which featured a buffet supper and bridge party, the proceeds of which were added to the fund for the renovation of the house.

The following have recently joined the legion of Three Star men in the service of their country: Leon Morrano , Axel R . Johnson, Charles I. Mayer, Robert R. Nelson, and Fred Lefevre

Most of Beta' s men who have been active in athletics at Columbia have also been lost to the service. However, during the past term, the chapter was represented by John C. Keenan and Phillip T. Fleuchaus on the varsity basketball squad. Fleuchaus also holds down a position on the baseball team. Alan Cook continued his good performance on the swimming team. In intramural athletics , Alpha Alpha's hardwood artists captured the college basketball crown only to be defeated later on by an older and much more experienced Union Theological Seminary team.

Alpha Alpha is playing a large part in the campus social life. Robert Brown is a member of the Glee club; Don Kline is on the staff of the campus radio station, CURC ; Brown is also active in the Debate council. Allen Wolfe, Brown, Cooper, and Robert

Rowe are working hard on Columbia' s forthcoming Varsity Show; Ken Holden is on the staff of the Columbian (yearbook) and Rowe represents the chapter on the Earl Hall Religious Society council.

Thus, when most of Columbia's fraternities have fallen victim of wartime cond i: tions, Beta Theta Pi continues to maintain its high standards of leadership in fraternity and campus life (RoBERT E. BROWN, Columbia '45)

DENVER

Newly elected officers of Alpha Zeta chapter are: John L. Robertson, president ; Walter K. Johnson, vice president; Richard Guscott, secretary; Gaar I . Potter, treasurer; and Richard R. Keithly, recorder . (RICHARD H. GuscoTT , S ecretary)

DEPAUW

With the Navy V-12 unit being constantly reduced in size, with most of the pre-war civilians graduated, and with fewer and fewer freshmen entering college, Delta chapter has gradually dwindled to a membership of eight men-six Navy V-12s and two ci vil ians dur new officers are Ralph Houser (V-12) , president; Jack Robbins (V-12) , vice president; James Clark, secretary; and Spencer Payne (V-12), treasurer. In fact, every member in the chapter has an office th is semester Our chapter house continued to serve as a university dormitory for freshman women. Last semester we were gr ateful to accept the invitation of the Alpha Chi Omega sorority to hold our chapter meetings in their house. These meetings were supplemented by song practices two nights a week at the college music hall. During the semester we enjoyed several Beta "Dorgs" at restaurants out in town. High lights of the social season were the Miami Triad dance and Beta formal held in our own house. The semester of Beta activity came to a climax with the initiation of Arthur Stern and John Prestwich and the initiation banquet which followed Delta chapter is about to reach a milestone-that of one hundred ye a rs of continuous activity in Beta Theta Pi . On April

23, the Centennial was commemorated on the DePauw campus by a token ceremony only. The real celebration in the form of a reunion of all Delta alumni will be held when the war is over. That is the day toward which we all look forward! (JAMES W. CLARK, Secretary)

JOHNS HOPKINS .

The condition of the Alpha Chi chapter house is now for the better due to new interior painting. The chapter room and the whole first floor have been redecorated and the rest of the house will be painted from time to time as each occupant has opportunity to do his own room.

At the final rush party on March 3, the more recent alumni outnumbered the active members. Those present were: John H. Wilkins, alumnus financial adviser, James R. Cantrell, Earnest S. Gohn, Peter S. Kerwin, Louis F. Drummeter, Jr., Paul C. Adkins, John B Crow, D. Clinton Redgrave, III, E. Horace Siegler, Jr., W. Alfred Gakenheimer, Clark A. Whitehorn, and T. King McCubbin, Jr. With the close of the rush season, the following men pledged AlP.ha Chi: Henry Ma.xwell Lummas, III, Baltimore , Md.; Harry Wilmer Wood, Conshohochen, Pa.; Billy Wilson Davis, Mayfield, Ky.; and Richard Childs Schroter, Baltimore, Md.

In university activities, Robert P. Flynn was elected president of the Student council and has been acting manager of the basketball team. Charles L. Huang has been elected president of the Interfraternity board and a member of the Student council. (JOHN F. WROTEN , JR ., Secretary)

MIAMI

Election of new officers of Alpha chapter took place on February 1. Ray Lippert was elected president, Richard Holton, vice president, Erwin Russell , pledge master, Ransome Williams, rush ·chairman, Robert Stevenson, secretary, Ed. Golterman treasurer Robert Moore and Irvin sociai co-chairman and Thad Joos, alumni secretary. ·

Initiation was held February 17, at the Phi Kappa Tau national headquarters. New initiates included Bernard Yoakum, Glen Core, William Baetz, Wayne Dille (all V-12), John Smith, Daniel Smith, Lee Key, and James Brehm. A breakfast at Venn's followed the ceremony.

On February 2, 1945, the V-12 unit gave a "Happy Hour" program. Betas were numerous in t}:le cast. Bernard Yoakum had charge of all the "chorus girls." The V-12 band featured Glenn Kent, John Craig, John Smoot and William Baetz, while the dancing beauties included Glen Core and Wayne Dille. (THAD H. Joos, Alumni Secretary)

SouTH DAKOTA

At the present time there are two members of Gamma Alpha chapter on the campus, Thomas Littlejohn, Jr., of Spartenburg, S.C., serving as president and William T. F. Paul of Lead, S.D., serving as vice president. There are three pledges-Rees Evans and Roger K. Haugen of Sioux Falls, S.D., and Jesse J. Barron of Minneapolis, Minn. The chapter house, which has been closed since it was vacated by young women students, has been opened and the members and pledges are now living there . The building will be repainted and redecorated during the coming summer . (H. E. BROOKMAN, Chapte r Counselor)

SYRACUSE

Beta Epsilon has pledged .the following men: John Bradley, Richard Harrington, and Warren E. Moore , all of Syracuse, N.Y.; George ,Cole, Rochester, N.Y.; Edward Dolan, Mamaroneck, N.Y.; H. Jefferds Hustis, White Plains, N Y.; Robert Oelwang, Hornell, N.Y.; and Wayne F Purtell, Fayetteville, N.Y.

Cole, Hustis and Dolan played on the football team last fall and Dolan shone brilliantly in the traditional game against Colgate. William Posthill and Thomas Kashberger have just recently joined the Navy . Wesley Daniels, 2nd class of 1944, was manager of the football team last fall and is now with an accounting firm in New York.

BETA EPSILON CHAPTER AT SYRACUSE

The chapter has been holding meetings with the aid of the alumni at the home of one of the members. They have been given excellent instruction and a great deal of real help by Richard Harriman, a former president of the chapter, now chief of District III and a student in the law college after a degree in liberal arts and a year in the Army.

Though the chapter is small, the members have worked exceptionally hard to keep a live group representing Beta Epsilon; despite rushing without the help of the chapter house they have done an excellent job . They are participating in interfraternity sports, having teams both in swimming and football.

The chapter house has been renovated by the university after use by the Army . It is now ready to be used by the chapter when enough members return to make it financially possible t"o open it. If there is a housing shortage again this it will probably be returned · for a period to the university for the use of women students (B CHURCHILL LoVELAND, JR. , Syracuse '16)

TULANE

Beta Xi is again this year leading the race for the Panhellenic cup on the Tulane campus Only bridge, tennis, track, and handball remain to be played off.

The chapter was pleased to get their house back from the univer:sity; it had been used as a girls' dormitory. A good many improvements have been made, but there still mains much work to be done. The present Naval R O.T.C. seniors, along with several of the " veteran" V-12 ' s and civilians, moved out in July , 1943, so they and the newer members who had never had the privilege in living in the house , were glad to put it to the good use that it has had since we took over in January

The chapter dwindled from 28 members last semester to 18 now. Six pledges will be initiated in the near future. A " Blue and White Formal " (dance) was held on April 4. Also , there has been talk of having a Miami Triad dance in the near future.

The chapter is made up of mostly Naval trainees, including both N R.O.T.C. and V12 men.

Beta at Tulane is leading in many activities, including the year-book and weekly newspaper under Murphy Moss, and Engineering society, under Joseph Rault. Others taking prominent parts are Joseph Killeen, varsity football, Dabney Ewin, honor student, and Floyd Lewis, past president of Beta Xi chapter and of his senior class. Lewis was also top graduate in the R.O.T.C.

We have no worries over music, because the chapter has its own band. Musicians are

parties, suppers, and alumni and mothers teas. (JosEPH RAULT, Secretary)

WASHINGTON AND J;FFERSON

Gamma is holding her own now with two actives and two pledges. Thanks to Uncle Sam, Harry Purviance and Oliver Brown are in the Navy, leaving Richard Clarke and Harry Gilmore, Jr., to take care of pledging. (HARRY GILMORE, JR., President)

WESLEYAN

As Wesleyan started its Spring semester this year, Mu Epsilon chapter had at its first meeting nine members and seven pledges. During the winter semester, the transfer of Navy V-12 students and the loss of civilians cost the chapter six members. At the present time, three of our members are civilians, the remainder being V-12 trainees.

New elected officers are : Edwin A. Dudley, president; Joseph A. Miller, vice president; Daniel G. O'Shea, recorder; Richard A. Jansy, secretary; and Robert L. Marier, treasurer. (RICHARD A. JANSY, Secretary)

Pinson Bobo, bass fiddle, Isaac Greer, piano, Richard Cockrell, trombone, and Ames Smith, trumpet, plus the rest of the chapter which does the vocalizing.

No one stays at the house permanently, because we have no out-of-town civilians, but on the week-ends, the out-of-town Navy men all live there and enjoy it immensely

Because of Navy restrictions during the week, the chapter holds many functions on Saturday and Sunday, including, hay-rides, dances,

Chapter affairs at Beta Psi are running smoothly this year. We have 12 men living in the house, and eight members and one pledge outside. We have won first place in every intramural sport except badminton, this year; this includes football, volleyball, basketball. We also won the "Christmas Sing."

We have had several initiations this year. On October 22, 1944, we initiated four men. Our last initiation was March 4, 1945. On this date, at ceremonies in the chapter house, three new members were initiated . A dinner was given in their honor later in the evening, with local and visiting alumni present. The initiates were Fred Blaine Deem, Jr., Clarksburg, W.Va ; Harry Victor Spangler, Fayettesville, W .Va.; and Welch England, Parkersburg, W.Va. The initiation was in charge of the chapter president, Joseph Hunger. (GEORGE L. DoLIN, Chapter Secretary)

tJAU[ MYSTIC SHRINE

John A. Blair

Beta Theta Pi lost one of her sweetest, most gallant souls when the REV. DR. JoHN

ALLAN BLAIR, Wabash ' 93-"Johnny" Blair to the Betas of the past quarter century -died suddenly on January 27, 1945 after a brief illness Typically · of him, he was giving of himself to others until the very end ; on Wednesday afternoon he had fought through a terrible wind and snow storm to visit a sick friend, suffering a heart strain from which he did not recover, the end coming peacefully and in his sleep on Saturday morning.

The strength of Beta Theta Pi has been in the quality of the devoted leadership she has received from the individuals who have believed in and loved the fraternitY over more than a century of vigorous life. John Blair was one of the great Beta leaders of the past twenty:five years, with a deep and abiding faith in the "Beta Eternal" of which he spoke so eloquently at the Centenary Convention vesper service, and with the ability to transmit his faith and love to others. His was no blind faith : it was founded on a meaningful fraternity experience, a broad vision, a clarity of thought and a devotion to those Beta ideals he so often spoke of, simply, as Love and Truth and Faith. Above all, he loved and believed in young men; believing in them as he did, his words to them carried conviction and inspiration that reached their hearts and drew them closer to the fraternity.

John Blair had a rich Beta heritage, for his mother, Jennie Johnson Blair of Crawfordsville, Indiana, was duly initiated into

Tau chapter in 1867, in appreciation for her consistent friendship to Wabash Betas and for keeping the ritual and chapter records during the Civil War period. She was one of three "Beta girls" initiated by Tau chapter, the Misses Emma and Celia Bennett having

He was particularly fond and proud of his garden, which was a place of great beauty, and he was a successful horticulturist, propagating many species of flowers. He studied the subject deeply and experimented tirelessly, and succeeded in growing a number of rare and unusual shrubs.

In 1897, in the year after his graduation from theological school, he married Miss Harriet Clelagd of Indianapolis, Indiana, and she survives him. Betas know and love her, too, for she accompanied Johnny to many Beta conventions and long since won her way to Beta hearts. Like our brother, she is a sweet and gallant soul.

Funeral services were held in the Church of the Falling Spring on January 30, attended by a great outpouring of his parishioners and fellow towns-people. The tributes paid to his memory were not alone for his character and his work as a pastor, but also for his very great influence in the community, especially among young people. Beta Theta Pi was officially represented by Gilbert Malcolm, Dickinson '15, treasurer of Dickinson College, and Arthur J. Frey, Brown '20, business manager of Wilson College.

The Great Memorial Roll receives the name of John Allan Blair, who has given us a priceless heritage and whose faith and love we shall keep in our hearts.

Charles F. Burgess

DR. CHARLES FREDERICK BuRGESS, Wisconsin '95, chemical engineer and founder of the Burgess Industries, died in the Presbyterian hospital, Chicago, Ill., on February 13, 1945, after a brief illness His age was 72 He received a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Wisconsin in 1895, and two years later added a degree in electrical engineering. He was a member of the faculty of his alma mater from 1900 to 1913, resigning his position as professor of chemical engineering in 1913 to become a manufacturer.

In addition to the process for the electrolytic purification of iron, Dr. Burgess invented various iron allon and improvements in dry cells, taking out more than 40 patents covering various products and processes. The Western Society of Engineers awarded to him the Chanute Medal in 1911, and in 1932 he received the Perkin Medal of the American section of the Society of Chemical Industry for "distinguished services in the field of applied chemistry."

Wayland M. Chester

DR. WAYLAND MoRGAN CHESTER, Colgate '94, professor emeritus of biology of Colgate University, died on February 7, 1945, at his home in Hamilton, N.Y., where he had been a resident for over half a century. Dr. Chester possessed to a marked degree every quality of a great teacher, in that he was scholarly, sympathetic and inspiring.

When only ten years out of college, he was named the head of the department of biology, with rank of professor, a position which he held until his retirement in 1938. In the meantime and in 1906, he was appointed the assistant curator of the Colgate Museum. His special field of study was in research in the life of coral animals. For many years, he spent his summers in such research at the Bermuda Biological station, of which he was at various times the director

His publications include A Guide to General Biology, the first edition of which was published in 1914, and The Structure of the Gorgonian Coral Pseudoplexamus Crassa, . which was published in 1912. He was a member of Phi Beta Kappa, a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, a member of the American Society of Zoologists, the Biology Society of Washington, and the American Microscopical society.

He was at all times a devoted member of Beta Theta Pi and was constantly seeking ways by which he could serve the fraternity constructively. He had the complete respect, admiration and affection of almost fifty
